Line 1: {{trope\|wppage=Indian summer}} {{quote\|''The last rose of summer, is blooming on the lawn~~<br />~~ ''All her lovely companions are faded and gone...''\|'''Thomas Moore''', "The Last Rose of Summer"}} In any setting where exists a standard [[Seasonal Baggage\|four season]] climate, there will always be an episode or chapter where it is unseasonably warm and beautiful. This will always occur at the beginning or end of summer ([[Small Reference Pools\|depending on whether summers in the area]] [[The Dog Days of Summer\|are known for being oppressively hot and humid]], [[Summer Campy\|or blessed and carefree]], respectively.) [~~http://en.~~[wikipedia~~.org/wiki/Indian_summer~~:Indian summer\|Indian summer]] weather is always important to the plot, as it signifies the beginning of the last chapter in the characters' ~~relationship -- a~~relationship—a Romance, a Road Trip, etc. The characters are able to enjoy some carefree time together right before [[Rule of Drama\|things start to go south]]. If it is a [[Coming of Age Story]], the last time the characters get together to have fun before going their separate ways will always be an unseasonably warm and pleasant day. Some huge relationship battle will invariably occur and separate the [[True Companions\|tight-knit group of characters]] by nightfall, only to have them reunite (possibly years later) in more depressing circumstances, usually [[It Always Rains At Funerals\|in the rain]]. Compare [[Bittersweet Ending]]. Inverse of [[~~Its~~It's Always Spring]]. Closely related to [[First Snow]]. Contrast [[Dreaming of a White Christmas]], [[Long Hot Summer]]. Not to be confused with the [[~~Useful Notes/~~India\|weather in India]], although the trope fully applies to works set in South Asia on unseasonably ''cool'' days. {{examples\|Examples:}}▼ ▲{{examples~~\|Examples:~~}} == [[Film]] == * ''[[Grease]]'' starts with ~~Sandra Dee~~Sandy and Johnny falling in love during an idyllic summer vacation at the beach. == [[Literature]] == Line 55: [[Category:Drama Tropes]] [[Category:Indian Summer]] [[Category:~~Trope~~Tropes of Nature]]
